Our days astronomy is a very developed science. People make full fledged simulations of star and planetary disk formations. They use hydrodimanics, magnetodynamics, gravitational theory, depending on cases special and general relativity and as much physics you want to include. The models are solved using differential equations and very powerful computers.
They account for possible subtle effects created by magnetic and electrical fields all the time. There is really no space for "revolutionary" ideas of planetary formation due to some magnetic dust in space. Even if this group is by default a supporter of amateur science, there is a reason why it takes almost a decade of graduate studies to understand a particular subfield of modern science. There is nothing wrong with citizen science, in fact, it is a beautiful idea but you would not walk on a professional basketball field and play basketball on a world championship without hesitation or being completely mad.
